Wunderman Thompson South Asia .
The film captures a conversation between star couple
Lux Indian ambassador, actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, said, “This campaign with lux is special to me. This is my second pregnancy and I fully subscribe to the view that one should continue to break stereotypes and do what you love! At the end, doing what you love is really what makes you glow!!”
Commenting on the campaign, Severine Vauleon, Global Brand Vice President, Lux, said, “Women are often bombarded with judgements that define how they should live, look or behave. Even during pregnancy, everyone has a say on how she should express or carry herself. But why can’t a woman be pregnant & still lead a full glorious life?
At Lux we believe that a woman should be able to do what makes her glow - at all stages of life, including while she’s pregnant! With this initiative we encourage women to celebrate being unstoppable!”
Kishore Tadepalli, SVP & Managing Partner, Wunderman Thompson, Mumbai said, “We wanted to create a conversation about the many societal biases women face. And when she is pregnant, these biases and judgements just increase. Kareena has been a torchbearer for the fact that pregnancy doesn’t stop a woman from doing what she wants to do. It helped us tell a real story about what she feels and represents. Lux as a brand has always shown a powerful, positive side of women. They are not just beautiful, they are strong individuals too. For when a woman wants to glow, nothing really can stop her.”
The campaign is a true celebration of a woman's glow and the fact that she always finds a way to rise above judgements and find a way to express herself. The brand encourages women to rise above biases and find strength and happiness in doing what they love and in what makes them happy.
As yesteryear Lux ambassador Audrey Hepburn once said, ‘Happy girls are the prettiest.'
